The Great North Run
Join the world’s largest Half Marathon with over 60,000 participants, and support the Miscarriage Association!
Starting in Newcastle upon Tyne, runners cross the iconic Tyne Bridge before finishing 13.1 miles later in South Shields. This prestigious event – often featured on the BBC – offers a fantastic platform to raise awareness of the Miscarriage Association as well as highlight our services and the support we provide.
